Brooklyn, NY: Even a king-sized victory stogie can't hide the ear-to-ear smile on the face of little Sandy Amoros after Brooklyn clinched the pennant here Sept. 30th. Sandy, who was the "goat" when he dropped a fly ball a couple of days earlier, blasted two homers as the Brooks beat Pittsburgh, 8 - 6, to nail down their 10th National League pennant.
